This campground has some pretty rough edges but it's just a short block from the beach (we can see the water from our RV) and two blocks from a great fishing jetty. The woman who runs the place is very friendly and full of information. There are a number of older units in the park and some seem to be occupied by single males working in the area. When we first asked, she said the rate was $25 but when we hesitated, she quickly offered it for $20. But we could only stay one night because they were fully booked for the weekend. Like I said, it has some rough edges but it has location, location, location. We'll come again. - Johnnyonthespot

The owners were very friendly and helpful. We did not have a different vehicle so they helped by assisting us in our travels and getting to church on Sundays. We enjoyed the Jetty and walking on the beach. The owners told us a lot about the area and Surfside. Clute and Lake Jackson are not far away and they have all you may want such as: Mall, eateries, and Wal-Mart. The park is in a residential area and very quiet in the winter months. The only reason we are leaving is because of our missionary work. Definitely look forward to returning next year. - SVANDEMOO

Kudos!! We have been here for almost 4 months starting the end of November 2014 and hate the thought of having to leave. Location, location, location. Right at the edge of the dunes and about 200 feet to water's edge. Park expanded last year and has multiple pull-through sites as well as a number of back-in sites with a separate dog pen. They rent golf carts, kayaks, umbrellas and lawn chairs. Excellent Wi-Fi. Guests are friendly; quite a few refinery/chemical plant workers but campers and sites are well maintained. The park is well groomed and I am sure there are more activities during summer months. As 1st time snowbirds this was an excellent introduction to the RV life style. Thanks to the owner and staff for a wonderful stay. Rate is based on monthly rate. - Retirement Is Grand

This is a small park with a boardwalk leading to the beach. The sites are large level cement pads with a picnic table. The ones closest to the boardwalk are more expensive but all the sites are an easy walk to the beach. There is no pool. There is no shade. There is no cable but we were able to get several channels with our antenna. The Wi-Fi was decent. The water piped into the motorhome tasted salty even though we have filters so bring bottled water for drinking. The beach had seaweed 3 ft deep in places but that was not the fault of the RV park. The owner lives in the large beach house on the property. With a few upgrades this COULD be a nice little park. - DonnaZ2011

Beautiful park because its near the beach. There are no trees anywhere so of course it is hot. It is very open but that is not always a good thing. Wind noise is very much a problem. But if you like that beach this is the place to stay. The rates are pretty high but its the beach so I wouldn't expect anything less. - Fa11Guy

We stopped late in the afternoon and found the park to be an all right place for the night. A very friendly manager. As we were coming into Surfside Beach this was the first RV park we saw, I'd have no problems with staying here again but I would check closer to the gulf next time. Really close to water, birds, some people fishing by the covered picnic area. Concrete pads & good water. I'm not aware of the park having bathrooms or showers. The park is a 5 minute walk from a bar with live music and food. - becida

The rate is based on the winter monthly rate which is very reasonable. The Wi-Fi is free and excellent, accommodating our gaming, Netflix, and computer use. Great bird watching on the salt grass marshes all winter long. I love watching the great white pelicans heard the fish to shore in flocks of a hundred or more. The main entrance to Surfside Beach is a minute away over the inter-coastal waterway bridge and you can drive on the beach. We really enjoyed the huge Texas fresh beef burgers at the Pier 30 right next door (walking distance). They have 24/7 on site management and the manager is one of the nicest people I have ever met. He even helped me out when my car was in the shop and took me to the corner store for supplies. The reason I gave it an 8 is because there is no shower or laundry facilities. This has been a wonderful place to spend the winter. I will miss you Shipman's Landing and the manager, but will be back next winter. - Cheryl A

First, there are few parks on the coast, so rates are high regardless of amenities or facilities. This park has two amenities -- cable and wi-fi. The wi-fi is actually good; we were never dropped, but the cable is limited with some channels better than others. The park is basic, and the only improvement in at least ten years is the sign. There is a sign on the office door that says the park was inspected by Woodalls in 2003. The owner is difficult to reach for making reservations. When we came in, it took until the next day to reach him. We just setup and went on. There were only two other vacancies in the park which is almost all long term. Across the streets on two sides are bar/grills. One with flashing red/blue lights all night. There wasn't any noise from them, however. There is a very good seafood restaurant a few blocks east on the Blue Water Hwy. There is very easy access to the beach, which is two short blocks away. There is not a lot of traffic. We won't stay here again, but would spend a bit more to stay at the two parks on the water to the east. - Mrmac8

This is bare bones as far as amenities go, but the manager is super nice and the place is quiet and a perfect location just steps from the beach. We loved the restaurant and bar across the street (Castaways) and another restaurant within walking distance on the beach (Pirates Landing). We had a nice grassy spot and the cable worked well. Wish we could have stayed longer. Views were nice and hearing the ocean all night was an added bonus. - music mama

Park is close to beach, but beach is not visible from most sites. Sites are tight. Manager was OK but was never in office. You either had to call him or wait until he happened to be walking through the park. Rate $200/wk, including tax. - BertD

Rate is based on weekly rate. Note: weekly or longer stays the electric is billed separately (about $2-$4 per day) Our "7" rate is primarily the location and view - beach front. All sites have concrete pads. Our pad was perfect level but we noticed some were not. Full hookups were very good. Neighbors are a little close but you can expect that at the beach. Of the 15 sites available, about half were local workers but their sites were clean. There really aren't any amenities. No restrooms or showers. There is 1 washer and dryer which is used by the RV park and motel laundry. The RVers can use it from 7:00 a.m. to noon. The next closest laundry is 5 miles. Staff was very pleasant but they are not in the office most of the time. You can reach them by phone. The best part of the park is location, location, location. There is a fantastic restaurant (the Red Snapper) just down the street. If we were going to this beach, we would stay again. - User2396

Different rates for the sites, we had a monthly so just ask rate at that moment. Great place, right on the beach, quiet during winter season but be sure to phone ahead to see if there is a spot available. We loved the sound of the surf day and night. We will come back for sure! - Traveller Excel

We stayed three months at this park. December through February. It is the only park we could find on the Texas Gulf that has direct access to the beach and a view of the surf. All the sites have concrete pads with very large grassy areas. The Wi-Fi & cable are excellent and access to the small town of Surfside as well as larger service areas with full shopping is close. The folks who run the Park are friendly and helpful and we would definitely stay here again. - OutbackTrekers
